Should the regualtions on newbies be limited?

[aureliopuente]

I made an account to post on a thread but turns out you have to post 5 times in a newbie post and be online 4 hours before you can post on a thread??

Yes
These regulations help stop trolls & allow those that are truly interested in the community to be involved.

limited or some of the restrictions lifted?

True. I'm newbie too, but I wouldn't mind if the regulations were made even stricter as it's too easy to write 4 posts and stay logged in for 4 hours. Not enough to stop more stubborn trolls.

I agree with biskup, but something along the lines of 1 post an hour for the first week, then at the end of the week if you have 10 post you can become a fledged member might work also and let new members get help they might need.

Pretty spammy in the newbie forum because for some reason newbies prefer to spam as a way to get their required 5 posts rather than engaging in useful and intelligent discussion as a way to get to 5 posts.
